About
CMS Roofing & Outdoor Living is based at 1825 Lone Lynx Way in Wylie, Collin County, and works across the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. The Better Business Bureau records the business as incorporated and started in July 2020, opened its BBB file in August 2020, and lists it as an Accredited Business with an A plus rating, accredited since April 2025. BBB also records a second location on State Highway 249 in Houston, and shows the legal entity as CMS Solutions DFW LLC.
The company runs two connected lines of work. On the roofing side it offers residential and commercial roof replacement, roof repair, free inspections, storm and hail damage restoration and insurance claim assistance. On the outdoor living side it builds concrete and stamped concrete driveways and patios, outdoor kitchens, covered patios, pergolas, retaining walls, hardscape and paver walkways, drainage solutions and fencing. BBB categorises it under roofing contractors, metal roofing, flat roofing, commercial roofing, fence contractors and concrete.
The company's own website describes it as an RCAT Licensed & Certified Roofing Contractor. Our record holds its RCAT status as Member, and the RCAT directory shows a contractor membership entry for the Wylie business. RCAT membership and RCAT's separately earned Licensed Roofing Contractor credential are not the same thing, so treat the site wording as a company claim unless the credential itself is confirmed. No GAF, Owens Corning or CertainTeed certification was found for this company on any manufacturer directory.

Insurance & credential verification
Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so we verify companies the way homeowners actually can: confirming insurance coverage, checking RCAT (Roofing Contractors Association of Texas) status, and checking city or county registration where the local jurisdiction requires one. Every credential below links to the actual issuing organization's own public lookup — don't just take our checkmark for it. Always ask for a current certificate of insurance before signing any contract.

City/county registration
Not checked for WylieTexas has no state roofing licence, and city rules differ: some require contractor registration, some run a voluntary registry, some neither. Ask this company and your local permit office.

Confirm this yourself: ask the company for their certificate of insurance (COI). Note that RCAT's Licensed Roofing Contractor credential (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is earned and held by a named individual at a company, not by the business itself, which is why we name that person above where we know it; Texas issues no company roofing license at all. RCAT and NTRCA status can be checked in their own public directories (RCAT, NTRCA) — use the "Licensed"/"Accredited" filter to see more than plain membership. GAF's contractor verification tool and Owens Corning's Texas locator confirm those tiers directly; CertainTeed doesn't offer a comparable self-serve lookup, so ask to see that certificate in person. BBB accreditation and rating are on bbb.org. Houston's own published registered-roofer list is years out of date, so it isn't cited here at all — confirm registration by contacting the city directly. Corpus Christi's STAR program has its own online contractor registry — for any other city or county registration claim, confirm directly with that jurisdiction's permit office.

Frequently asked
Is CMS Roofing licensed by the State of Texas?
Texas does not issue a state roofing license, so no Texas roofer holds one. The company's own site uses the phrase RCAT Licensed & Certified Roofing Contractor, which refers to the trade association rather than to any government licence. Verify insurance and RCAT standing directly.
What is the difference between RCAT Member and RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor?
RCAT Member simply means the company pays dues and belongs to the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas. RCAT Licensed Roofing Contractor (CRRL, RRL or CRL) is a separately earned credential with its own requirements. They are not interchangeable. This listing records CMS Roofing & Outdoor Living as a Member.
Which county is CMS Roofing in?
Collin County. The company's headquarters address, 1825 Lone Lynx Way, Wylie, TX 75098, is on the Collin County side of Wylie. Wylie itself straddles Collin, Dallas and Rockwall counties.
How bad is hail in the Wylie and Collin County area?
This is the heart of what is often called Hail Alley. North Texas sees some of the highest hail claim volume in the United States, and severe storms in spring and early summer regularly damage roofs across Collin, Dallas and Denton counties.
Should I install Class 4 impact resistant shingles in North Texas?
They are worth pricing out. Class 4 is the highest UL 2218 impact rating and many Texas carriers offer a homeowners premium discount for a documented Class 4 roof. Ask your insurer what credit they apply before committing, because the discount varies by carrier and by policy.
Does the company help with insurance claims?
Yes. The company lists free inspections, storm and hail damage restoration and insurance claim assistance among its services. Note that in Texas a roofing contractor cannot act as your public adjuster or negotiate the claim on your behalf. They can document damage and meet the adjuster on site.
Do they only do roofs?
No. Outdoor living is a substantial part of the business. Alongside roofing they build concrete and stamped concrete driveways and patios, covered patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, retaining walls, paver walkways, drainage systems and fences.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in the DFW area?
Texas has no single statewide building code enforcement body, so permitting and inspection are handled by each city. Wylie, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Dallas and Fort Worth each run their own process and fees. A reputable contractor pulls the permit under its own name.
How long has the company been in business?
The BBB file records the business as incorporated and started on 27 July 2020, giving roughly six years of trading. BBB accreditation followed in April 2025.
What should I check before signing with any North Texas roofer after a hail storm?
Get the certificate of insurance sent to you directly by the insurance agency. Confirm a physical local address, not just a PO box. Get the full scope in writing rather than an insurance proceeds only contract. Check who pulls the permit. Be wary of any door knocker who pressures you to sign on the first visit or offers to cover your deductible, which is illegal in Texas.
